Maria Nilsdotter Jewelry

Swedish jewelry designer Maria Nilsdotter creates pieces inspired by a mysterious and dark fantasy world, often drawn from folk tales and mythology. The design is characterized by symbolic figures, unexpected twists and thought provoking contrasts... After graduating from renowned arts college Central Saint Martins in 2007 Maria started her brand right away, creating all her jewelry by herself. Since then her business has grown as demand for her pieces increased. In 2012 Maria was awarded the prestigious Guldknappen Accessoar for accessory designer of the year by Swedish magazine Damernas Värld, and today her jewelry is made by skilled craftsmen in Sweden and England, and is being sold by shops in several different countries, with her flagship store in Stockholm.

Macabre Gadgets

Just happened to stumble over a very cool jewelry designer - Macabre Gadgets. The handmade pieces in their collections have this blend of beauty and the macabre I love so much, and they are created from diverse materials like pressed coral, pressed bone, industrial polymer plastic and inlaid precious and semi-precious stones, pearls and metals.

"Macabre Gadgets is inspired by the infernal aesthetics of the dark side, which is inherent by the world view of mankind at all times, epochs and styles, from the early Middle Ages to progressive postmodernism."

Some favorites of mine:

Coral crown ring. Pressed coral, cultured pearls.

Bifacial skull ring. Polymer plastic, amethysts.

Raven skull ring, black. Polymer plastic.

Carpathia collar, black. Polymer plastic, silver, caoutchouc.

Black snake earrings. Polymer plastic, silver.

Octopus ring, white. Pressed coral, cultured pearls.

Caprinae notebook. Leather, paper, polymer plastic.

Sevan Bicakci

When he was just twelve years old, Sevan Bicakci started his career as a jeweler, as an intern in Hovsep Catak's workshop. In 2002 he created his firs personal collection, inspired by the historical Grand Bazaar - Sultanahmet area in Turkey, where he spends a lot of time. His unique, very intrinsic creations has since then attracted the attention of private collectors, and some distinguished stores. Sevan also has his own boutiques in Dubai and Istanbul.

When I first saw these pieces, it felt like I had just opened the book A Thousand and One Nights, and they just fell out from the pages... The big gems on the rings contain stories of their own, is you look closely, and the earrings are perfect for any Arabian Princess. It wouldn't surprise me if you could make carpets fly by waving one of these pieces around a bit...

Lydia Courteille

On 231, Rue Saint Honoré lies a little boutique that sells magic jewelry. So if you want to cast a spell on someone, this is where you should go!...Or at least I think these sparkling works of wonder holds magical powers. They look like they should...

The creator behind the jewelry I'm talking about is Lydia Courteille, and her creations belongs to another world. A world of fairies, pirates, dreams, and mythological beasts. I wish I could go to a party dressed in nothing but her creations...
